Are Tritoma the same as Kniphofia?
I am growing Tritoma flamenco mix for cut flowers -
developed to bloom from seed the first year - and this is true. They do
not seem to like the heat (we just had two weeks of up to 115F) and
they like more water than I thought they would. I have them planted
with Gallairdia 'Torchlight', Achillea 'Paprika' and Helenium red and gold
mix. I am hoping the Achillea will grow a bit larger and give them a bit
of shade.
Does anyone use fertilizer with
Kniphofia?
Nan, thanks for the cool site.
